A compact one-bedroom ground-floor flat offering straightforward city-centre living and clear scope to personalise. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge, separate kitchen, utility room, bedroom with fitted wardrobe and a wet room — practical for a single occupant or couple. Outside space comprises a small yard and off-street parking, a useful rarity so close to Peterborough city centre.
The property is leasehold with 118 years remaining and modest running costs: a below-average service charge (£332) and a low ground rent (£10). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; double glazing is installed but predates 2002 and may be less efficient than modern units. The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and presents typical mid-century construction details.
Buyers should be aware of material local factors: the area is classified as very deprived and recorded higher crime rates, which will affect suitability for some households and resale prospects. The flat is offered in average condition and suits first-time buyers who want an affordable city-base with potential to upgrade, or investors seeking a straightforward let close to transport and amenities.
A viewing will show the practical strengths — parking, separate utility, and a handy layout — alongside the things to budget for: potential window upgrades, cosmetic updates and consideration of the neighbourhood profile before purchase.
